The Q1 is one of the first ultra mobile computers (UMPC) produced under Microsoft’s Origami project. The Samsung can boot into two different modes, one normal Windows XP (OS can be replaced) and one AVS mode running Windows XP Embedded. The AVS mode boots up much faster and will enable a user to play music and videos. This feature lacks in many other UMPCs.

People have been able to install Microsoft Vista and run this successfully on the Q1 as well. The CF port has by some testers been reported as being very slow compared to using an external card reader in the USB 2.0 port. Future releases could benefit greatly from a fast CF and SD card slot because these devices can also work very good as photo backup and proofing units (similar to dedicated units like the Epson P-2000). Unfortunately, Samsung has removed the CF port altogether in the Q1b version, and chances are that it will be removed in future versions as well.

Samsung Q1 SSD

The SSD version is identical to the Q1 but instead of a 40 GB harddrive has been fitted with Samsungs new 32 GB Solid State Drive. Not only does this make the device much faster, but also uses less power than a normal 1.8″ harddrive. The SSD version is about twice as expensive as the normal Q1, but even so that probably makes the 32 GB drive the cheapest SSD drive of its size today. Expect SSD drives to become a commonly found feature among UMPCs and all portable devices as prices come down on this technology.

Samsung Q1b

The Samsung Q1b is Samsung’s second UMPC device, with a much improved battery life and 30% brighter screen compared to the Q1. The CF port and the Ethernet port has been removed on this version. It also has a mono speaker and a single microphone. This is probably to increase battery lifetime as well as cutting production costs down.

Optional WiBro Module
Optional High-Speed Downlink Packet Access Module

Samsung Q1 Pentium M

This is almost identical to the original Q1 but with a faster 1Ghz Pentium M processor (723) which enables speedstep technology for better battery usage. Its uncertain though that its battery lifetime is much better than the original, which has by many been regarded as too short. The new model Q1b has a bit improved batterylifetime. Its possible to buy a 6-cell battery instead of the default 3-cell to double the time on all these devices. The Pentium edition also has:

1 GB DDR2 RAM
60 GB Hard Drive
Intel GMA 950 chipset
The Intel GMA 950 chipset is approximately a 2.5 times faster graphics processor than the GMA 900 found in standard Q1.

Memory Upgrade

The Samsung Q1 can hold a total of 1 GB of memory, and it is possible to upgrade the 512 MB versions by getting the right SODIMM type of memory. The upgrade involves opening the device which will probably void your warranty, locating the memory chip and swapping it. There are some instructions how to do this on jkOnTheRun. Note however that people report that the AVS function cease to work after the memory upgrade and you might have to adjust some bios settings or reinstall the AVS partition.
